Lord of Arcane

Chapter 1342 Additional order short-term bonus
After completing the delivery of the first order and making a fortune, Xia Duo was in a very happy mood, and when he discussed the next order with Lord Harlan, he seemed even more calm and calm.

"After a month of training, the Tower of Time is capable of completing more orders. If Lord Harlan is willing to believe in the Tower of Time, the Tower of Time will not let you down."

"Of course I believe in the Tower of Time, I believe in Lord Xiaduo, and I am willing to deliver more orders to the Tower of Time, but there is still a small problem here, I need your confirmation first!"

"What's the problem?" Xia Duo asked.

"A matter of time."

Charles Harlan recalled the days when he contacted Lord Xiaduo every day. Although the other party did not violate the agreement, he was quite sure that the other party intentionally delayed the delivery of the order.

"If possible, I hope that the Tower of Time can be delivered as soon as the order is completed, and we will be responsible for any additional personnel exchange costs incurred during the period!"

"This—" Xia Duo was silent for a while, and then asked again, "Then how long is Lord Harlan's expected production time limit?"

"How about fifteen days?" Charles Harlan tentatively asked a time.

The first order seems to have taken a month, but because it is the first order, it will definitely take longer, and the relevant personnel will become more and more familiar with it, which will definitely save a considerable amount of time.

When talking about this number, Charles actually didn't know much about it, because the same order was handed over to other Mage Tower organizations, and the time would only be more than a month, not less.

Naturally, Xia Duo could not agree to this, and he was unwilling to even pay the expedited fee, and wanted to deliver the goods in advance, which was simply wishful thinking.

"Lord Haran, you need to know that everyone who can make a demon-slaying amulet is a high-level mage, and any mage tower can't force a high-level mage to do something he doesn't want to do, unless—"

"Unless what?"

"..."

Xia Duo immediately rolled his eyes, this is so obvious, don't you understand?Unless you add money!
"cough--"

As a last resort, Xia Duo had no choice but to be more blunt, "If Lord Haran is willing to increase the foundry fee for a single piece of Demon-Slaying Amulet, the high-level mage of the Tower of Time may be willing to spend more personal time dedicated to completing your amulet. order."

Now, Charles Harlan understood why Lord Xiaduo hadn't responded to his summons before, and it turned out to be because of this!

From a rational point of view, it is very beneficial to him to increase efficiency by adding money, but he is always a little bit unwilling, since it can be done without adding money, why does he have to add money?

It's just that no matter how stupid he is, he can't say these words in person, so he proposed another plan, "Just now I saw the quality of those demon-slaying amulets, and I believe that the yield rate of the Tower of Time is definitely more than [-]%. I think we can change the way of cooperation——

"The premise of ordering 100 pieces a month remains the same, but at the end of the month, for each additional piece of Tower of Time, I can buy it at a price of 3000 pieces."

This is actually adding money in exchange for efficiency in disguise, but the timeline of each order is extended to one month. According to Charles' calculation, the price of 3000 gold coins per item, even if it is a normal purchase order, the Tower of Time also has have to earn.

Not to mention there are more materials from OEM orders.

Only this time, Xia Duo still did not agree, not that the additional acquisition plan is not good, 3000 a piece is of course profitable, after all, for a demon-slaying amulet, the finished material is 1000 and the OEM market price is 1000, and the remaining 1000 is pure earn.

This is the case for other people, the tower of time will only earn more.

It's just that this is not in line with Xia Duo's original intention. He wants to make money, but he can't sell his strength. According to Lord Harlan's new plan, the Tower of Time does make a lot of money, but it is also tied to this order.

After thinking about it, Xia Duo directly stated his final plan——

"First, the Tower of Time only accepts delivery at the end of the month; secondly, for an order of 100 pieces, the OEM fee is 1000 gold coins per piece; for an order of 150 pieces, the OEM fee is 1500 gold coins per piece; 200 gold coins, up to 2000 pieces per month."

Xia Duo didn't want to be too deeply bound with Lord Haran. If he wanted to increase efficiency, it was very simple, just add money. That kind of additional purchase seemed good, but in fact it turned the Tower of Time into a foundry.

The Tower of Time's foundry is just a means to make money and materials, not the ultimate goal.

Xia Duo values ​​the leftover materials from the processing of supplied materials. Whether it is to continue to produce demon-slaying amulets, or other magic items, or to maintain the Tower of Time, they are relatively flexible.

At the same time, he was not worried that Lord Harlan would run away. After having tasted the high efficiency of the Tower of Time, switching to other Mage Tower organizations, or some individual order takers, the experience was completely incomparable.

Sure enough, after Xia Duo said his final plan, Lord Harlan fell silent, frowning and thinking, but he did not leave.

Of course, the asking price for this plan is a bit too high, but such a foundry with consistent quality and extremely high efficiency naturally has the confidence to ask for such a price.

It won't be too late to start a price war when other mage towers are mass-produced.

Of course, such a price is only valid within a few months before the design of the Demon Slayer Talisman is released. Over time, it is most efficient to purchase finished products from a large number of high-level mage individuals.

But at that time, there will definitely be various problems, such as unstable quality of amulets produced by different groups of people, and additional inspection time will be required, or high-level mages will complete production tasks for their own mage tower organizations, and private orders will be delivered delay and so on.

Xia Duo knew that the lord of Harlan got the military order directly from the dwarf prince, and he got it in advance, so how could it be possible to use a batch of miscellaneous goods with huge differences in quality to make a deal!
Of course, it is necessary to choose a guaranteed "brand manufacturer" like the Tower of Time!

The fact is just as Xia Duo expected, Lord Harlan thought for a long time, and finally agreed to Xia Duo's plan, and the second batch of orders directly reached the limit given by Xia Duo——

200 pieces per month, the foundry fee is 2000 gold coins per piece, but the yield rate has increased slightly, reaching [-]%.

Regarding the yield rate, Xia Duo and Lord Harlan had a long back-and-forth discussion, and Lord Harlan's attitude in this regard was very firm, and finally set it at [-]%.

If it is 2000% more, it is estimated that it will not be worthy of the OEM fee of [-] per piece.

Of course, Xia Duo also intends to make concessions after a difficult negotiation, otherwise it will be too easy, and the other party may not cherish it.

In fact, Xia Duo didn't really care about the issue of earning more or less. The key was to make a deal. If there was a deal, he could make money and materials. It also provided job opportunities for the magic technicians in the Tower of Time.

On the premise of a win-win situation, strive for your own interests as much as possible.

Without the premise of a win-win situation, even if you earn more in a short period of time, you will lose more in the long run.
